System and method of positioning offshore wind farm collecting power line fault

Abstract

The invention discloses a system and a method of positioning offshore wind farm collecting power line fault. Current transformers are arranged on the offshore wind farm collecting power line according to wind turbine pre-fabricated substation access points; multiple terminal units are used for acquiring current data of pre-fabricated substation high voltage-side CTs and CTs on the collecting power line; a fault positioning intelligent unit at a booster station end carries out processing and judging; and a fault positioning result is obtained finally. During a data processing process, a network transmission model is used for determining the time difference between different current terminal units; synchronous processing and correction are carried out on the data through interpolation calculation; when a differential protection principle is then used for fault judgment, a tri-linear differential protection criterion is provided, unbalanced current and CT saturation situations in the normal case can be avoided, the relation between the differential current and the braking current is judged, and a fault area is determined. The offshore wind farm collecting power line fault can be quickly positioned, and while tripping is protected, the fault area is judged.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of safe operation of wind farms, in particular to a fault location system and method for collector lines of offshore wind farms. Background technique [0002] Refer to the accompanying drawings in the manual figure 1 As shown, the collection lines of offshore wind farms generally use a line connected to a wind turbine at intervals, and each wind turbine is equipped with a box-type transformer. A circuit breaker DL is installed between the collector line and the 35kV busbar of the step-up station, and a load switch QL is installed in the connecting line between the fan box transformers. When the collector line fails, the protection device installed at the circuit breaker trips the circuit breaker to isolate the fault. [0003] At present, there are mainly the following schemes for locating the fault area of ​​the collector line: [0004] One is the impedance method, that is, the DC bridge method. This met...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

This method is greatly affected by environmental factors and can only be tested after a complete power failure. The fault point is found slowly and the repair time of the fault is long, which is not conducive to the rapid restoration of power supply of the collector line.

In addition, for high-resistance faults, the existing technology needs to be equipped with a high-voltage generator, which makes on-site operation a potential safety hazard;

[0006] There is also the principle of using optical fiber temperature-sensing cables to measure temperature to realize online positioning of faulty collector lines, but this method needs to lay temperature-sensing cables on
